that I am still alive on this planet. I never meant to be gone for over 3 months. It was supposed to be 2 or 3 weeks so I could get my house cleaned and gardening done. That didn't happen. I guess I just lost all my enthusiasm for blogging. I did write a post almost every day in my head but it didn't get into the computer. I mostly read and went swimming, plus a few trips to Mayo Clinic in Rochester for doctor appointments. Finally found a doctor willing to do the surgery to remove 3 cancerous nodules in my neck. Had the surgery September 30th and all went well. What a relief to get that over with.
We have been having some beautiful fall weather with warm temps and gorgeous trees. Here are a couple of pictures of my back yard. Most of the leaves here are already on the ground
And some of the trees around town.
I hope you all had a great summer and are having a wonderful fall. I promise not to be away for so long again and will get around to visiting you all soon,
Until next time
Barb

Glad you are back! I know what you mean about losing enthusiasm for blogging. I have been so busy it's just hard to get on the computer any more. I'm so glad your surgery went well :)
Glad surgery went well, Barb! I bet that is a HUGE relief.
One of our twin boys had surgery Weds.. (much more minor than yours) He's home recovering and will go back to school Monday. Thinking of you, and I've been struggling to find the time to get those posts out of my head and onto a computer, too.
Time is shortest for me in the fall. But it's been lovely. :)
I'm glad you're okay! Especially getting the cancerous nodes removed. Bet that is a huge relief. The fall foliage in your yard is so beautiful.
I'm really glad to hear from you! I'm also glad that you are doing well and I certainly hope things continue to get better. Hope to see you often!
So good to hear from you, Barb! I am glad the surgery went well and the nodules were removed! It is looking beautiful there...we sure have had a lovely fall!
Hi Barb, So happy to see your post and know that you are doing well. So glad and thankful your surgery is over and behind you. Love your fall pics and wishing you a wonderful season.
Blessings to you with a great big hug!!

Glad you are back, Barb. It's so good to hear from you. I'm really happy you've had the cancerous nodules removed! Now your blogging won't totally be done in your head...I hope. :)
sorry I'm late getting here, I am very happy to read your surgery went well! Those fall colours are outstanding++
Barb,
Prayers for continued healing. I'm glad to hear you are doing well.
Here's to a gorgeous fall in many ways.
So glad your surgery went well. I too have taken lots of time off but I'm anxious to get back into blog world. Love your autumn leaves. It will be December probably before our leaves peak with their color, but I will patiently await that day!
So nice to hear from you Barb. ''I see Beth is having treatments just completed some similar to yours.
She just wrote on her blog.
She is pretty sore her throat inside.
Your place looks beautiful with the Fall look so vibrant.
So relax and enjoy the Fall about you.

Gorgeous trees, Barb! Our trees down in my area never get as beautiful as those so I love to see photos of trees in your area.
Thankful to hear the surgery went well. These are beautiful fall photos you have shared. I know you look forward to spending time with loved ones during the upcoming holidays.
That tree in the third pic from the bottom is wonderful!
